When upon life’s billows

  

When upon life’s billows you are tempest – tossed

When you are discouraged and thinking all is lost

Count your many blessings, name them one by one

And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

 

Count your blessings, name them one by one;

Count your blessings, see what God hath done

Count your blessings, name them one by one;

Count your many blessings see what God hath done.

 

Are you ever burdened with a load of care?

Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?

Count your many blessings every doubt will fly

And you will be singing as the days go by

 

So amid the conflict whether great or small

Do not be discouraged, God is over all

Count your many blessings name them one by one

Help and comfort give you to journey’s end.
